My Car -
I thought I would show you a picture of my car. Isn’t it cute? I love driving it.
EET (Our Online School)
There is still much work to be done to get the school running at "full speed" but the first course should begin very soon. At last count, we had between 10-15 students interested in taking the course. Jon is working 12-18 hour days to get things ready. I am helping a little, but studying language and traffic rules takes most of my time.
(There was a paragraph about my blog included in this letter, but since you're here, you don't really need to read about it.)
This month’s quote:
Love, too, has a way of burning away what we once thought we could count on...He is not only the burning bush of the law; he is also the flame of life that burns away all that keeps us from being loved by him intimately. Obedience is an ongoing invitation to relinquish control...I’m sure you would agree: the greatest miracle is that any of our hearts would call God good in the midst of letting go. It’s hard...over time we realize we’re leaving behind things that were not big enough for our heart’s passion anyway, but as it is happening, it hurts like crazy.

Praises:
1. Funds are coming in for my car. Continue to pray.
2. I am making progress in learning the "rules of the road" in Spain. My scores get a little better each time I take a test.
3. Nacho’s dad is now working and living in Cuéllar.
4. I have some new ideas for meeting with people at church to practice the language. I will also begin meeting with my two language helpers next week.
Prayer Requests:
1. Pray that we will find just the right driving school, one that will be willing to work with a student who doesn’t speak fluent Spanish.
2. Pray for Jon to have supernatural strength as he puts in long hours to get the online school up and running.
3. Pray for wisdom as to the best time to return to language school and how to schedule the remaining weeks I have left.
4. I have lost $200 in monthly support this year. Pray for God to supply what is needed.

This is GREAT stuff! Hey! Could you link your website to this blog?? It is not very difficult, but I am not sure how to tell you how to do it. Go to the "Help" portion of Blogger and there is a HTML line that you need to cut and paste. It would be GREAT to be able to zip to your website from here and visa versa. I figured out how to do it on my temporary website. :)
Much love,
Alice
